Wrapped the piano black pieces in the car. Still have a few more to do, but happy to not have to worry about the pieces getting scratched and showing everything. And need an interior detail after looking at the pics.

Kwalko,
How did you remove window switch panel? did you get a whole door panel off ? Thank you

Yes, took the door panel off. It's the only way to get to the switch panel. The door panel was simple to take off, there are 2 screws and the rest are clips, and unhook the power cable for the switches. The switch panel took a bit to remove since I was trying to be careful and didn't know exactly how it came off. Once I figured it out, it was pretty easy.

Best bang for buck is a tough one - in terms of money and time/effort, the rubber door seals were effective in cutting down on wind noise, and making the doors feel and sound more premium.

I*ve cut down road noise a lot with a combination of soundproofing materials on the floor and doors, but this was fairly expansive and very labor-intensive.
I*ve also soundproofed the wings/fenders (underneath the liners) but this didn*t make a huge difference.

Next up is some anti-vibration material on the roof but I*m not looking forward to dropping the headliner...

Hey I like that additional rubber door seal idea RichardCX5, how much did you end up using? Do you think 2 of those kits you linked, ~33 feet (10m) would be enough? For the doors I'm assuming you only did the part below the bottom edge of the windows, correct?

I forget exactly but I think two kits did all four doors on the bottom and rear edges, the front of the hood/bonnet and three sides of the trunk/boot lid.
On the door rear edges I did all the way from the top of the door to the bottom.
A little tip, where where a hole on the bottom of the door/trunk lid, make sure you cut a slot in the rubber to allow water to drain away! Also make sure you clean the area really well before applying the rubber strip, preferably using alcohol of some sort to make sure thereís no grease left.

Wow. Where did you get the wrap? Or did you make it yourself?
Great job!
